Sho: Nino, you love gravure idols, right?

LJ02
Nino: I ADORE them to death!

Not exactly shocking news, but I still died nonetheless. Nobody told me that this episode was going to be so epic!!

Edited to add: 

[livejournal.com profile] drigby kindly alerted me to the fact that Masami and Nozomi (Nino's previous girlfriends) were both former gravure idols. Way to go, Nino. --_________--"

Thanks for your responses, everyone! I managed to find the scans of the Ray Magazine online. ♥

Whoever made this is a genius, really. 



The creator basically overlaid the vocal tracks of Arashi's "Face Down" and Perfume's "Spending All My Time" together into a stylistic and magical amalgamation. I was blown away!

I basically loved how the video editor interspersed the Perfume members knocking on a locked door while the Arashi members sing about hiding in a dark room. ♥ ♥ ♥

I missed watching this show SO much.

yaoh04

Synopsis: Yaoh, literally "King of the Night", is a Japanese drama which stars TOKIO member Matsuoka Masahiro as an ex-gangster in his quest to be the number one host in the Kabuki-cho district of Tokyo.

Kya~ Kaname Jun! I've always enjoyed his somewhat comedic and serious sides in the various roles he has portrayed. My favorite from him will always be the Hashed Rice Prince from Ryusei no Kizuna, but his character here comes a close second.

More familiar faces under the cut! )

With Kagiheya, my personal catharsis came in the form of crossover fanfiction; but for the current season of Last Hope, I though it'd be more appropriate to do a character analysis. You'll find commentaries and parts of Dr. Takumi's dialogue here, so don't say I didn't warn you about SPOILERS.

lasthope

Takumi’s role as a general practitioner (GP) within the Biomedical and Innovation center meant that he often serves as the first line of contact with patients. Nicknamed by his colleagues as the “Private Doc”, Takumi often uses a combination of his keen observation skills and creativity to devise a suitable diagnosis for his patients.

You say some pretty harsh things while smiling, you know? )

Matsuko no Shiranai Sekai (A World Unbeknownst to Matsuko) is a talk show hosted by Matsuko Deluxe where she investigates everything from Pepsi, Dams to Stuntmen. I catch this mainly for the Matsuko quips and her LOLz expressions. 

There's also a GANTZ reference in this current episode about stuntmen and stuntwomen. And did you know that there are only 58 stuntmen in Japan!? The things I learn from Matsuko.

It's a testament to how awesome this week's VSA was when I took about 60 odd screencaps from the episode. There's just so much love in the house! And it's not just within Arashi. ♥ ♥ ♥

This duo may just be my new OTP for this drama season.

And we get gratuitous shots of Jun because VSA producers know that fangirls are dying to analyse his new hair.

"Last Hope is a drama where there's lots of doctors." )

OT3!!!

I'll probably make a VSA post later when more people have gotten to watch it, but this is absolutely adorable!

Was I the only one who was bored during the VSA New SP with Tunnels as the guest? Arashi needs to go on other people's shows again and demonstrate the same amount of crack that we saw in THIS epic show.

Moji-Rai!

Moji-JUN! I saw this coming from a mile away but that didn't stop my mind from imploding all the same.

MOJI MOJI~!!! )

...lots of photoshopped Arashi in drag!!

Some of these pictures are actually pretty darn believable. 

sho
Doesn't Sho eerily remind you of Horikita Maki here?

nino
I wonder if Nino's mom ever looked like this...

He-she-he? )

Apparently Youtube still is a treasure trove of videos despite the crackdown from all the Japanese TV networks. Well, this is safe, since it's Korean variety. In this video, Kara and a few other Korean celebrities talk about Arashi, and Jun in particular. Catch Kara being all starstruck and gushing over sharing an elevator with J!

Seems like today's the day to be sharing music videos! I present to you the Wild At Heart PV performed by the Yaya Koguma (Somewhat Tiny Bears).

In a moment of satirical genius, SMAP's Katori Shingo decides to mimic Suzuki Fuku's performance of his single, Iya Iya YO~. Excuse me while I die from laughing in a corner.



Here's the original version performed by Fuku. I recommend that you watch this first to get the full picture.

In which Nagase enthralls Jun with trivia on tunnels on Tokyo.

Part of the fun in this lies in watching Nagase and Jun wolfing down that steak. Nagase + Beef = Epic TV. Remember when he was a guest on Shukudai-kun and ate from a giant skewer of Shawarma?

In which Nagase plays host. Somewhat. )

It's just so rare to hear Toma sing. He's got a decent voice, too bad at points he was almost drowned out by the band. And did you see Takamizawa from The ALFEE?

Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] sinisterteacher for pointing this out. =D
